3 personal appearance
Beginner
A: That girl looks very attractive, doesn’t she?
B: do you think so? I don’t like girls who look like that. I like girls who
aren’t too slim. If you like her, go and talk to her.
A: I’d like to, but there’s her boyfriend. He’s very broad-shouldered.
B: he’s huge! He must go to the gym to have a well-built body like
that.
A: do you prefer tall girls or short ones?
B: I don’t mind, but I like girls with long hair.
A: we have different tastes. I like girls with short hair. I like tall
girls- probably because I’m so tall myself.
B: have you ever dated a girl taller than you?
A: no, never. I don’t think I’ve ever met a girl taller than me! Have you
gained weight recently?
B: yes, I have. Perhaps I should go to the gym, like that girl’s
boyfriend.
A: I ‘m getting a bit plump myself. Perhaps I’ll go with you.
Intemp3ediate
A: let’s play a little game. I’ll describe someone and you try and guess
who it is.
B: ok. I’m really bored at the moment.
A: ok. This man is tall and slim. He’s got blue eyes and curly brown
hair.
B: does he have a moustache or a beard?
A: good question. Yes, he has a moustache, but no beard.
B: sounds like mike, is it?
A: yes, it is. You describe someone we both know.
B: right. She’s not very tall and she’s quite plump. She’s got blonder
hair, but I don’t know what color her eyes are.
A: is she attractive? I don’t think I know anyone like that.
B: I like slim girls, so I doubt I would find a plump girl attractive.
You’ll have to give me some more infomp3ation.
A: she’s got tiny feet and wears really unfashionable shoes. In fact, she
wears unfashionable clothes too.
B: this doesn’t sound like anyone I know. I give up. Teel me who she
is.
A; she’s your mother!
B: how embarrassing! I don’t even recognize a description of my own mother!
How important do you think appearance is ?
A: I think that unfortunately it’s more important than a person’s
character. Advertising and stuff tells us that we have to be attractive. I think
it’s wrong, but that’s the way the world is now.
A: I’m afraid you’re right. I chose my girlfriend because she has a
wonderful personality.
B: well, you certainly didn’t choose her because of her looks! Hey, I was
joking! Don’t hit me!
